There’s really not a bad song on this album.

Along with Sgt Peppers, this is one of the most important albums of all time, good reaction

Lyndon is very based on morality. He stayed with his wife from 1979 through her death this past year from Alzheimer’s. He took care of her until the end.

Every single song is great. But I’d say this is my favourite. Holidays In The Sun is a great opener and Submission is a great tune! You should just react to the rest of the album.

I love Problems and New York too.

I saw The Sex Pistols twice in NYC. The concert was an experience! People knew all the words to every song. I remember we where jumping on top of each other. I could not believed that I was at this concert. What a moment that will stay with me.

The Sex Pistols did not play NYC on their U.S. tour, unless you mean one of their much later reunion tours. When did you see them?

I highly recommend ’Did You No Wrong’ which was a b-side and can be found as a bonus track for this album. It’s an underrated track!

And I love the fact that it was apparently supposed to be a song about a submarine mission but John decided to subvert it; poor Malcolm.

Justin the entire album is great. The best way to listen is to the entire album from begining to end. I do hope you listen to more tracks as they are all great.

Steve Jones played guitar and bass on this, Paul Cook on drums and of course Johnny on vocals, steve was hugely relieved that Sid vacuous was ill when the recording was done, oh and dont forget Chris Spedding!

Masterpiece. BLAST IT LOUD AS POSSIBLE!

One of the most influential albums of all time, would’ve been better off just doing the whole album at once. But even if you do that you should listen to a song that wasn’t put on the album called ‘Did You No Wrong,’ it’s an absolute hidden gem that deserved to be on their 1 and only album. Dare say it would’ve made it to their second album if they didn’t break up, you’d be the first person to react to it which would be super cool 🤘🏻

Im glad you are giving chance to punk, a trascendental genre that influenced ALL the rock movments before

A classic track from a seminal album. I need say no more!

another delightful ballad from The Pistols ha ha, so great to hear this again. You should check out , I Wanna Be me , pretty sure it was the great b side of anarchy in the UK.

Some of the pistols pressings are the most valuablè albums in the world. Pistols forever

I heard that story before, only recently. Its always been my favourite track off the album (not the subject) ..although I'm glad you enjoyed the riffs 😅 Oh, and Plastow Patricia is a classic, from another great album. Cheers JP ☠️

Yup, Ian Dury sprang immediately to mind.

After hearing this song, US critic Greil Marcus called Johnny Rotten "the first ever terrifying rock singer". Rotten himself said that any Sex Pistols reunion depended on him being able to replicate the anger of this song.

Another good one, this whole album is good. Are you doing every song from this album, Justin?

This was the song that would send punks nuts when played in the 70s at small venues before the acts came in. Remember going to the marquee in London,the band had to cancel,so they just played songs to avoid a mini riot

When I first heard the Pistols I was aghast. 40 years later they are a top 10 punk band.

she showed up with her dead fetus in a baggie, thats what Rotten was talking about. In 70's England where love and loyalty to the Queen was ingrained into the fabric of society, this music and this band were insanely shocking. People in England where outraged and they were pretty much public enemy #1.

if you're gonna do a punk jag, take a look at Richard Hell and the Voidoids. I'm all in on 'Blank Generation' and 'Love Comes in Spurts'.

The Pistols were a great "rock" band with punk attached to them.....Bollocks is a great album.

I do recommend Public Image Ltd. Their songs Public Image, Ease, Death Disco, Poptones, Seattle, Religion, The Body, Flowers Of Romance, Rules And Regulations. Also check out Pigface! PiL had elements of Industrial but also post-rock

For the fun playful side of the Sex Pistols I recommend Friggin In The Rigging!

Soothing .

Oh, you gotta do at least one more Sex Pistols song, Holidays In The Sun, their catchiest song with a great guitar riff. Please Sir!

The best track on the album, and they were all absolutely superb!

Good shit!!!! Listening to this song again. No one should be surprised that Lydon sounds almost conservative today. It has always been there. " It's not a loss of protein. Its an abortion. " He revisits this theme on PIL's album Happy? with the song The Body. I don't think the single did very well, but the video is entertaining watching John dance around in his hospital scrubs like a doctor from hell, with his tools being crude instruments like hammers and saws. You should do a reaction to the video.

Rushed out and bought this Album , sadly very rarely rush anywhere these days 😂

Sex Pistols bother me. If they didn't exist, Genesis would never have done Follow You Follow Me and the world would objectively be a better place.

Game changer when it came to music

Glad you can treat this lightly...

"This wasn't too shocking", You have to look at the time period. At that time the only place to hear music was FM radio. It was saturated with Prog rock and Classic Rock. Bands like Tom Petty, Foreigner, Journey, Kansas, Boston, Eagles et al. All were singing about getting pussy. Or pontificating about who the hell knows what. Then the Sex Pistols came out singing about real stuff, abortion, anger at social issues etc. Lyrics like "I look around your house you got nothing to steal" was f*cking real sh*t. Where Classic and Prog had been in fantasy land this was real and QUITE shocking. Many didn't know what to think and hated "that punk shit".

The story behind this song is really sick.

LOVE the backups. You should watch Johnny in action. Brilliant!

Bold choice. Kudos!

I like every song on this album.

Maybe it’s an abridged version you read, but as I remember when she showed up at his door she had a fetus (the remains from a recent abortion) in a plastic bag.

Their cover of the Monkees song I'm Not Your Stepping Stone is epic I thinl it's a cover of a cover but the best version is the Pistols one it's epic.

Who would have thought that the Sex Pistols were pro-life? Actually if you dig down a bit, John Lydon was an Irishman (that is to say he grew up in a Catholic mileau) and he had a strong moral sense. This song should be played in conservative Christian churches everywhere!

Evening Justin. Dave from London. Saturday Night's Alright For... another Pistols song, from my favourite punk album. Come to think of it, it's probably the only punk album I like! Great guitar, and JL's voice is just right. As for the song's message... pass!

I think John Lydon is story teller and a poet.

Submission my fave pistols track of all time

So much music may not have happened without Never Mind the Bollocks, Steven Jones says this is his favorite track to play... Johnny, said, "we got a lot of hate for Bodies" So the story goes, the girl had an aborted fetus in the see-through handbag.

I wasn't a huge Sex Pistols fan but I really like the riffs that Glen Matlock and Steve Jones laid down. I save my John Lydon adoration for PiL. This is a great song from a decent album. Most of this was butchered by Sid Vicious a little while later. Gah.

Seminal album and probably the last decent era of Uk Music apart from that obscure lady Saint Saviour from up north.

I appreciate you doing so many punk rock tunes. You should check out Reality Asylum by Crass. 😊It’s fun.

The pro/anti abortion angle is discussed elsewhere but, if nothing else, it reminds people that abortions are not a simple issue of women's rights but (especially the backstreet illegal kind) shouldn't be anyone's first choice of contraception. The in-your-face music and lyrics fit perfectly with this story and show the almost metal side of the Pistols. Maybe their best (though I also agree with the love for Did You No Wrong elsewhere in the comments). Once again, thanks for the name-check, JP!

Johns voice is something else

They became more mane stream great live band

1977 ❤

If you enjoyed THAT, you should listen to The masses against the classes by Manic street preachers, a very loud angry track.. a love song to the government!

Try EMI - a creed against the record industry.

Album still played in the car much to the disgust off the Mrs

Always loved the song, the lyrics are a little more troubling these days though.

As John Lydon said the Sex Pistols would definitely be canceled in today society and it’s simply because they are a far right band despite him claiming it’s not an anti abortion it likely is especially knowing he is far right and was during the 70s

This is wonderful, feral rock music. It most certainly isn't anti-abortion, but it rails against the culture of casual abortion on whimsical demand. Direct, true, inspiring, and utterly life-changing, this song embodies rock and roll for me. Real anger, real emotion. Whither today's woke virtue signallers?

The Wellerman of earlier times was a poem for teenage boys, set to music by The Sex Pistols and some orchestra. I'd say it's less shocking than Bodies, but it might be a good way to get banned. It's called *Friggin in the Riggin* kzread.info/dash/bejne/dpyTy5mnirfFgdY.html (You probably won't enjoy the music as much. Although if you can find a bunch of misfits to get drunk with, it's great for when the time arrives to transform that into disorderliness.)

New York is fantastic

You have to look up what this song is actually about it's crazy.

To be fair he has since almost the beginning not liked the term punk at all. Personally I think that record is the best record he ever did. I’ve never been a big fan of PIL. In the post punk realm I’d easily take bands like Gang of Four or the Fall over his band.

there are very few punk bands or what they call punk in England that would be played on the radio back in those days but sex pistols could be played back in the States back in those days except this song this is the only real punk song in this whole album other than that the sex pistols are just the Monkees,of Punk,, manufactured band.

Ah, the anti abortion song, musically great vibe, but I don't agree with John's generalization about the issue, with the exception of a mentally ill woman, most women don't take the decision lightly.

Yeah, it's ok. Certainly hit the spot bitd. Potentially sensative subject, lots of swearing, simple-ish tune hammered out at you. Their punkiest tune, imho. Re the story JP, John's told it numerous times, so not sure which you were looking up. But there's others were when she turned up at his door she was carrying the foetus with her...

Sorry to everyone who thinks this song is anti-abortion: You're wrong. Johnny had this to say in an interview when asked if Bodies was anti-abortion: "No. Quite the opposite. No, no. Early on I had an acceptance of what life really is. We lived in two rooms and we had an outdoor toilet. My mum had a miscarriage. And this isn't against my mum, but - this could have been a brother or a sister for me to play with and I had to flush it down the toilet. I mean, that strikes you. And that's like an abortion. I'm not anti- or pro-abortion. Every woman should have the choice when they face it. But that was a grim Steptoe & Son world. My mum was heartbroken. And if you construe that as being anti-abortion, then you're a silly cu... sausage." So, he's pro-choice and has a special message to those who construe.
